Terms and conditions apply. Welcome in to the Illyine Inquirer podcast. There, Piper here, guest hosting for Jeremy Warner, who has made his way.

I think he's arrived by now to Kansas City, a huge Thanksgiving Day class between the

Illini and the Hogs of Arkansas. We'll

dive into all of that. We're excited to be joined by our guy, Mike Latulip, former Aligni,

of course, regular here on the Alignanquire podcast and a stock rising national media guy, too.

So what's up, Mike? Happy, happy feast week to you. Yeah, you too, man. You too, man. It's great that Jeremy's taking the family out to KC. There's no other place I'd rather be for Thanksgiving. We're hosting this year, actually, my wife and I, first time. So there's been a lot of, it's part of the reason why this recording got pushed back a little bit because I'm trying to figure out

Ducks in a row do that do the whole thing got the in-laws coming in town. So it's got to be it's got to be on point

Ducks in a row are you smoking duck? What you got rolling for the no, it's actually a small turkey and a small ham. We don't, we're not, we're not big on leftovers.

Illinois didn't play with their food the last two games when you look at Little Rock and also Maryland Eastern Shore. Eastern Shore is a brutal D1 team. They got smacked by Arkansas on Monday night as well. But Mike, I looked at Little Rock. I went back and watched the game against Arkansas. They finished within 12 points. Look at their Ken Palm analytics. The fact of their pick to win the OBC, yes, a low major league, but I thought that they maybe could put up a fight against the

Illini. I think it said a lot about Illinois that they didn't explode it out to what was a 33 to 13 lead

and cruised on from there. 92 to 34, the fewest points allowed by a Brandon of one team during his

tenure. We'll talk about defense, but just overall, what were the things that stood out here recently,

last two games about the Alina to you?

Yeah, I mean, we'll start with the Little Rock game.
